John,
I did not hear back from you right away. Maybe doing
all the combinations is too big a job for one person.
It might work if we split them up.
I could do these two:
RedHat 9 -> reinstall CentOS-3.1
RedHat 9 -> live update to CentOS-3.1
I am volunteering for these because I already have
RedHat 9 and CentOS-3.1 CD's.
The only rub is on Saturday I go on vacation, and at
the end of August I will be back to where I have my
computer junk. I could do those two in early
September.
Any other volunteers for any of the other
combinations?
My offer to work it all into the web site still
stands.
Rick
